The cluster-galaxy-galaxy three-point correlation function is defined and estimated for the Abell and Lick catalogs. This function measures the second moment of the galaxy distribution around a cluster. The results obtained with a simple power law model imply that the rms scatter in the galaxy count around an Abell richness class 1 cluster is less than about 60%.
